TRUE BLUE SEALS: ZAK is nearly here!

Just in time for Valentine's week, True Blue SEALs:Zak is the 12th book in the SEAL Brotherhood Series, and is now on preorder.

You loved Zak and Amy's story in True Navy Blue, my novella that first appeared in an anthology and is now available in all formats, including audio. This is a continuation of their story, beginning with an intimate quickie wedding, and his first deployment to North Africa. Their SEAL Team 3 is tasked with providing security for the Secretary of State on a super secret diplomatic mission.

Zak and Amy will have some things to work out when he returns injured. It will be a true test of their marriage, their love, their future together.

Blurb:

Zak and Amy are destined for each other. After successfully passing the BUD/S training, and helping to stop a San Francisco terrorist attack, Zak goes to the arena of war with the rest of his SEAL Team 3 buddies, to return a changed man. Amy will have to negotiate the pain in her heart as she works to discover the man she loved going off to war is still the man of her dreams, and only if she can convince Zak he still is that man.Here's a short excerpt:

His
hands smoothed up and down her upper arm as he stared at the ceiling. He’d made
the first step to do something important with his life by becoming a Navy SEAL.
His new family, the Brotherhood, healed and filled so many holes in his soul.
He felt the honor of serving with men who would gladly die for him, without
thinking about it. He was indeed one of the lucky ones. Now, he was about to do
the next big thing in his life. He was “securing the target,” bringing Amy into
his life not just as a girlfriend, but also as a mate and life partner. He’d
even been honest with her. If she couldn’t take the intensity of his family
now, couldn’t deal with the stress and loss and tears that sometimes came with
the job, along with the joy of doing something more important than all of them,
he’d have to walk away.

And,
as hard as it would be, he’d do it. He’d make sure he didn’t give up on his
shot to become one of the best of the best, and to serve his country proudly
with honor.

They
were to meet Carter at an omelet house for breakfast. He and Amy noodled around
in the shower until they were going to be very unfashionably late. He was
always the one to have to turn down the heat so they could keep to a schedule.
Amy would have been fine just staying in bed the whole time.

She
made a point of showing him she wasn’t going to wear panties, “just in case.”

“This
is going to be a painful day for me, I can see.”

“I
have the cure for that pain,” she whispered.

“Indeed
you do.” Her hopeful face was seeking out a message he wasn’t going to give
her. “You’re here to learn about my community. And before you tell me you
learned all you need to know in that bed,” he pointed to the tussled sheets
behind him, “I need to show you things. Things that are important for you to know.
I’m doing this for you, Amy.” He added a smile he’d almost forgotten to show.

She
got that little flighty look as she continued dressing and then examining the
floor, turning her head from side to side, the pouty smile on her face, just
reminding him that he really wasn’t in control. “Zak, I hope you’re not tired
of me already,” she whispered to her bright red toes.

“Not
a chance, sweetheart.” He grabbed her and held her tight. Lifting her lips with
fingers gently under her chin. “Stay just the way you are. Insatiable.” He
kissed her. “Sexy as hell.” He kissed her again. “Riding my cock all night long
like last night. I’m going to be ruined when you have to go back.”

“Then
keep me here.”

Her
clear brown eyes were honest, unflinching. He knew she was ready to take that
step through the doorway with him. As long as everything else worked out for
these next two days, he’d be able to convince her to get married before he
deployed. That was the mission. That was the target to be acquired.
